Woodcraft has the one that has the actual spring clips.

Not the same one but on the same lines.. is a clamp called the Clam Clamp and it has the barbs and is for corner clamping.

Haven’t seen that clamp style advertised in catalogues or in stores for awhile.

IIRC, Adjustable Clamp Company marketed them. Might give a call to them to see if they have nay in stock or know of who made them.

Garret Wade has a "spring" clamp:

Also Woodcraft:

I've never seen that clamp before but I have both the collins spring clamps Ray mentioned, you can get those directly from collins tool in OH. Dave Collins is great to deal with, he'll answer your questions personally and his tools are great. For smaller moldings and casings there is nothing better.

I also have a pair of the Clam Clamps Richard posted and those are great too. Those are more for larger moldings and casing and can put a large amount of pressure on the joint. Jim Chestnut is the owner and as a small company owner he's hands on. Great person.

That may not be a "store bought" clamp. It looks like it might be shop created out of a run of the mill spring clamp.
